🚨 ARTHROPOD OF THE DAY 🚨
Migratory grasshoppers are a fascinating and sometimes troublesome species found in various parts of the world, including the United States. They are known for their ability to travel long distances in search of new breeding regions.
They are considered short-horned grasshoppers from a scientific standpoint. Their migrations are massive and can have significant impacts. In fact, these different types of grasshoppers cross continents during spring and fall, numbering in the billions.
The scale of their migration can even influence weather patterns, leading to rainfall and potentially causing tornadoes in certain areas. Interestingly, migratory grasshoppers are the first species to arrive each spring.
They are widely distributed and can be found in various parts of the world. Their migrations span thousands of miles a year, sometimes aided by wind patterns.
